State of Georgia, Franklin County

"Personally
appeared before me the undersigned an acting Justice of the Peace in
and for said County, Moses Guest, to whose original and amended
Declaration this is Attached, and who being sworn Saith that he has
stated in said amendment his several services as fully as he can from
memory except that from papers since discovered he served as Captain
but does not recollect whether he had a Commission or not in writing,
But he knows he was fully authorized to Act as such. In 1777 he held
an ensigns Commission in the Infantry but does not recollect that he
served under it. he held at the time a Captains Commission which is
lost or so misplaced that he cannot possibly obtain it. He has
written to the Secretary of State in North Carolina to find if his
name is not enrolled there and if any proof is obtained will forward
it herewith. He also forwards the affidavit of Col. James Blair late a
Senator for the adjoining County of Habersham and also annexes a List
of Light Horsemen who were under his Command in the War, also his
Ensigns Commission and a Captains Commission dated in January 1782 for
a Captain of a foot Company which was at home and not in Service. He
further states that both the Ensigns and Captains Commissions annexed
were for Foot Companies, While the Commission he has lost and the service he performed was in a Horse Company.
